id0102b6803600

DTC P0111

IAT sensor circuit range/performance problem

DETECTION CONDITION
•  If intake air temperature is higher than engine coolant temperature by 18 °C {32.4 °F} for 1.2 s with ignition switch on*, the PCM determines that there is a intake air temperature sensor circuit range/performance problem.
*: Ignition switch on when 6 h or more has passed since the previous ignition switch off
Diagnostic support note
•  This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
•  The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM.
•  PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
•  FREEZE FRAME DATA is available.
•  DTC is stored in PCM memory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  IAT sensor malfunction
•  Poor connection at MAF/IAT sensor or PCM connector
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED
•  Has FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded?

•  Is the PENDING CODE for this DTC present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
7
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
